Grangur Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hi all, This won't be to everyone's taste, but this guy appeared this morning on my Facebook. I think his playing is pretty cool. Some here might enjoy it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor J Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 It's impressive playing but I can't help but feel electric bass guitar is not the best instrument for the piece of music. Similar to tapping, once you stop looking at it and just listen, the oul bass isn't too easy on the ears for some styles of solo playing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like classical guitar, but I prefer the lower register. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get mystified when solo bassists play things like this entirely beyond the 12th fret. No lower than a guitar but with a constricted range and tonal palette, and heavy articulation too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admire it and I guess, if I could be arsed to buy a classical 6 string, it might sound different. It might sound better, but that it subjective.
